I have actually seen a lot of spyware that use this
technique. They will hijack the browser and run the
client through their own machines, so if you try to go
to Google you get their search engine instead.
Although what you explain doesn't sound like the
typical browser hijack, especially if it was just
forwarding your traffic and didn't change your ip address.
